5th

Happy Anniversary, St. Lazarus Choir!

5 years and counting! I'm on my 4th year with the bunch!

Unlike our previous anniversary celebrations where we just gather and have dinner at some fancy place, we decided to do something different this year. We figured we want to make other people happy and share some of our blessings. So we arranged for a Jollibee Party and off we went to the Pediatric ward of San Lazaro Hospital.

It was heartbreaking seeing kids who were really sick (mostly of pneumonia), babies stuck with tubes connected to oxygen tanks and parents watching over their children. But somehow, seeing those kids smile and laugh at the Jollibee's (the mascot) antics, i felt that we were doing something good by spreading some cheer to the children even for just a few minutes.

*sigh*

I wish all those kiddies get well the soonest.

After the party, we sang in the mass at 5:30pm. Was it just me, or did we just sing with a little more heart this afternoon?

Whatever it was, it was all good. It was for God's greater glory.
